THE DANGERS OF Use of the illegal drug named Ecstasy MDMA has increased alarmingly in Britain over the last few years and in 1992 the British Medical Journal claimed that at least seven deaths and many s evere adverse reactions have followed its use as a dance drug. 14 deaths have so far been attributed to the drug in Britain although it is possible that other drugs contributed to some of those deaths. While it is true that all drugs by their very nature change the way in which the body reacts to its environment and are therefore potentially dangerous it is still unclear whether casual use of Ecstasy is as dangerous as authorities believe. What is certain is that the drug causes distinct changes to the body which unless understood may lead to fatal complications in certain circumstances. In almost all cases of MDMA-related deaths in Britain overheating of the body and inadequate replacement of fluids have been noted as the primary causes of death. Yet in the United States studies appear to implicate other causes since no deaths from overheating have yet been reported. It seems that normal healthy people are unlikely to die as a result of taking MDMA but people with preexisting conditions such as a weak heart or asthma may react in extreme ways and are well-advised not to take it. Not all physical problems associated with the drug are immediate. Medium term and long term effects have been reported which are quite disturbing yet not all are conclusively linked to the drug s use. Medium term effects include the possibility of contracting the liver disease hepatitis or risking damage to the kidneys. However animal studies show no such damage although it is readily admitted by researchers that animal studies are far from conclusive 38-44 53-57 since humans react in different ways than rats and monkeys to the drug and cases of human liver or kidney damage
